hi gurus,

I would like to give more details about the problem how the cronjob is not running.

priviously the cronjob entry was like below

Code:
. /dir1/dir2/cron_test.env;/dir1/dir2/transfer_file_to_target_updatedone.pl

actually in the second file which is perl file the initial lines looked like

Code:
 
#!/opt/perl/bin/perl -I/opt/perl/lib/site_perl -I/opt/perl/lib
use strict;
use Net::SFTP;
use Net::SFTP::Util qw (fx2txt);
use Net::FTP;
use Data::Dumper;
use DBD::Oracle qw(:ora_types);
use MIME::Lite;

But now though we are using the scp to include in the perl file
we are include one module in the perl file (in sence ,we have added a line" use Net::SCP::Expect;"like below) and the current initial lines looks like

Code:
#!/opt/perl/bin/perl -I/opt/perl/lib/site_perl -I/opt/perl/lib
use strict;
use Net::SFTP;
use Net::SFTP::Util qw (fx2txt);
use Net::FTP;
use Net::SCP::Expect; 
use Data::Dumper;
use DBD::Oracle qw(:ora_types);
use MIME::Lite;

and inside the pl we are using scp for secure copy.

now I think i got the problem due to this additional module which we added in the perl script that is making the cron job not running (but first .env script is working in both of cases"as it before and now").

I think some where cron is mainting these modules for "scp"(which should be added in cron list).

I have tried a lot it is not working(as a developer i am not accesed to open cron log) after implemented the "use Net::SCP::Expect; " (think should be added somewhere in cron list which should be done by unix admin).

Net::INET6Glue(3pm)					User Contributed Perl Documentation				       Net::INET6Glue(3pm)

NAME

       Net::INET6Glue - Make common modules IPv6 ready by hotpatching

SYNOPSIS

	use Net::INET6Glue; # include all glue
	use LWP;
	use Net::SMTP;
	use Net::FTP;
	..

DESCRIPTION

       Net::INET6Glue is a collection of modules to make common modules IPv6 ready by hotpatching them.

       Unfortunatly the current state of IPv6 support in perl is that no IPv6 support is in the core and that a lot of important modules (like
       Net::FTP, Net::SMTP, LWP,...) do not support IPv6 even if the modules for IPv6 sockets Socket6, IO::Socket::INET6 are available.

       This module tries to mitigate this by hotpatching.  Currently the following submodules are available:

       Net::INET6Glue::INET_is_INET6
	   Makes IO::Socket::INET behave like IO::Socket::INET6, especially make it capable to create IPv6 sockets. This makes LWP, Net::SMTP and
	   others IPv6 capable.

       Net::INET6Glue::FTP
	   Hotpatches Net::FTP to support EPRT and EPSV commands which are needed to deal with FTP over IPv6. Also loads
	   Net::INET6Glue::INET_is_INET6.
